"Love your Hair, Show you Care" Blow-Dry Fundraising Event at Salon O for Sunrise Day Camp

Get your hair blown-out by top stylists and help raise money for Sunrise Day Camp at Pearl River, a camp for children with cancer

On Monday, January 27th from 10:00 in the morning to 3:00 in the afternoon, Salon O in Greenwich, CT will host a “blow-dry” fundraising event with all the proceeds to benefit Sunrise Day Camp at Pearl River.  Sunrise Day Camp, located in Pearl River, NY, is a full summer day camp dedicated to children with cancer and their siblings and attendance at the camp is free of charge.   Located on 95 beautiful wooded acres in the Henry Kaufman Campgrounds in Pearl River, NY, Sunrise Day Camp at Pearl River and its partner camp, Sunrise Day Camp Long Island, located in Wheatley Heights, are the only full summer camps in the country dedicated to children with cancer.

“Love your hair, Show you care” captures the sentiments of the staff and owners of Salon O according to Salon O General Manager, Courtney Doros.  Ten of Salon O’s top hair stylists have dedicated their day off in order to ensure the success of this event.  And to make you feel truly pampered, Crush Wine Bar will be providing delicious hor d’oeuvres and beverages. 

Salon O is a high end, full service luxury salon located at 239 Mill Street in Greenwich Ct.  “One of our customers told us about Sunrise Day Camp and we were so humbled hearing about it.   We wanted to do something to lend our support and raise the money needed to send children with cancer in our area to this camp.  The blow-dry event was a perfect union – doing what we do best -  creating beautiful hair and helping Sunrise Day Camp at the same time.”, commented Omar Roth, one of the owners of Salon O.    All of the proceeds of this event will be donated to Sunrise Day Camp at Pearl River.
